Detailed explanation-1: -The main change in Macbeth’s character from the previous speech is that he is more certain in his mind and in his actions. He is more decisive and in addition he is becoming increasingly deceptive.
Detailed explanation-2: -Macbeth doesn’t tell his wife that he is killing Fleance and Banquo because she has already shown signs of cracking under the strain of the guilty secret of Duncan’s murder. For her sake, he is not going to discuss the details of the crime with her.
Detailed explanation-3: -His actions become less heroic and more cowardly as he continues to murder and terrorise others in order to hold on to his power. Towards the end of the play, when he realises that he is doomed, he briefly returns to his old heroic self.
Detailed explanation-4: -Macbeth goes from being a strong, well respected man to a cold, heartless, fearless murderer while Lady Macbeth goes from being strong willed and controlling to a scared, paranoid child.
